How did Londoners sleep during the Great Plague? We spend one quiet night walking through the streets of a city in crisis.
This is a slow history documentary made to fall asleep to. We explore the daily reality of medieval life in London, focusing on the cobblestone streets and the simple, dimly lit rooms where people sought rest. There are no sudden noises, no music, and nothing here will wake you; we simply observe a community living through an era of profound uncertainty.
We examine the domestic routines of the time to better understand sleep history in a world without modern comforts. By looking at how families closed their doors and tended their fires, we see the human scale of the Great Plague. This is not a chronicle of the epidemic itself, but a reconstruction of the quiet, fragile hours that defined London history.
